Ciaran gets season off to a winning start

CIARAN Black took the honours in the County Armagh Golf Club Open Stableford with an impressive 43 points from a Sunday afternoon round which included two 'no-scores'.

Francie Smyth returned the very same score and in similar fashion with two no-scores - unfortunately at the tenth and 18th holes on his homeward trek which, in countback, was the difference in winning and runners up.

Club Captain Brendan Smyth welcomed players from Mannan Castle, Galway, Dungannon and Rossmore to this the first Open competition of the season, and presented the prizes in front of a packed clubhouse as many took advantage of the St Patrick's Day bank holiday.

Despite failing to score at the second and fifth holes, winner Ciaran still managed to rack up 20 points by the turn. And he added a further 23 on the back nine holes to amass that 43 points tally.

Francie, in contrast was firing on all cylinders from the start and by the ninth hole had an incredible 26 points on his card. Disaster at ten and eighteen cost him dearly, with just a further 17 points collected in between.

Black and Smyth however, were two points clear of everyone else - Gerald McClusky's 41 points earned him third prize on a nine hole countback, Brendan Toner's 41 also secured fourth prize after a three-hole countback from fifth place Danny McGee. And Kieran Campbell's 40 points won him six prize.

BRENDAN Smyth was presented with his new navy-blue Captain's blazer by outgoing Captain Tom Calvert in front of a packed clubhouse on 1st January.

A member of County Armagh since 1971, the affable Brendan has held a number of posts in the club, including, last year, Greens Convenor when he was also Vice-Captain.

He has captained the club's Junior Cowdy team and Craigavon Senior Shield team on several occasions down the years and up until last year could boast an unbeaten run in all matches in which he played. His name is also engraved on the club's coveted Tuesday Cup as a previous winner.
